- Performance of WeederH at different χ2 score thresholds on the 99 orthologous promoter sets retrieved from the ABS database. %pred indicates the percentage of nucleotides of the reference sequence belonging to a conserved motif output by the algorithm. Nc indicates the nucleotide coverage, the percentage of nucleotides in annotated sites matched by a predicted motif; Sc indicates the site coverage, the number of annotated sites matched (at least by 75% of their length) by a motif predicted by WeederH; Sp is specificity. The next two rows report the performance of the Footprinter algorithm on the same set, using parsimony score alone (FP), and with the introduction of significance estimation (FPSIG). Finally, the bottom row shows the same data for the phastCons most conserved tracks available at the UCSC genome browser (on genomes: human and mouse, March 2006; rat, November 2004).
